What do you like best about Amazon Redshift?

The performance improvement over a period of time. We see improvement of vertical database performance over period of time and over growth of data.Other database such as oracle shows comparatively very low improvement using statistics and other factors. Primarily because of column based/row based differnce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Redshift?

Its not support merge operation that is upsert aka update and insert together. The without s3 copy the database is very slow to insert or update. I feel it's built to work in a certain way only. Because of maybe certain other reasons. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon Redshift solving and how is that benefiting you?

Millions of data read for Tableau at faster rate and performance support for queries. High overhead operations of oracle bulk loader operations is brought down by high performance s3 copy operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
